Launching the UK’s biggest industrial scale ultra-low carbon cement factory with Material Evolution

Dr Liz Gilligan, CEO, Material Evolution

In October 2024, Material Evolution launched a first-of-its-kind factory that will see the production of 120,000 tonnes of ultra-low carbon cement annually. The company uniquely leverages AI technology to develop ultra-low carbon cement, and launched the factory just over a year after its £15 million Series A fundraise. This talk will explore what the industry can learn from Material Evolution’s journey, and how this feeds into their mission to remove a gigaton of CO2 from the cement and concrete industries by 2040.
